Childhood Memories

Dunkin Donuts and Baskin Robins were the kings of their sweet goodies when I was young. In the late 90’s, Baskin Robins seemed to pretty much vanish. I don’t even think any of the stores I visited at that time had 31 flavors anymore. Later, Brewster’s and Marble Slab showed up to dominate the commercial… Continue reading Childhood Memories

Racquettball

Racquettball is one of those sports you can play by yourself and not look like a loner or worse. Solo basketball games make you look a little like a loner, and one-man football just looks plain silly. The hard part about you-on-you games is the score. I’m not exactly sure how you’re supposed to determine… Continue reading Racquettball

Today’s Lesson

Today’s lesson is this: Walk not into the stinch of defacation. In yonder room of rest lurks your failed dignity. That is, don’t go into the stinky bathroom (especially when you notice it from the hallway) alone. If you happen to be the only one walking in, you will be blamed walking out. And your… Continue reading Today’s Lesson

The story was very funny; a retired clan of super-heroes is wrenched from their mundane life to wrestle evil foes once again. The non-super… Continue reading The Incredibles

I bought a new, Logitech wireless controller for the festivities. It worked out very well all evening with… Continue reading Halo 2: First Look (Personally)

Tonight We Play!

Halo 2 is out, so of course I’ll be dining on bullets tonight. We’ve put together a nice team of players including some Microsoft folks. I’ll report how it went tomorrow – while blearly-eyed and nodding off at work.

5 New, Flavor-Filled, Sodas

Jones Soda, in their infinite wisdom of cuisine, has developed five new sodas for the Thanksgiving holiday. If you haven’t had one, you should. They’re delicious. However, I have not tasted any of the new holiday flavors, especially “Mashed Potatoes and Butter.” I ate buttered popcorn JellyBellies, so surely I can take a little juiced… Continue reading 5 New, Flavor-Filled, Sodas

MS-DOS 7.10

Now this is a good time! In case FreeDOS wasn’t cool enough for you, now you can get back to the original. I’m digging the 9MB bootable CD w/extra enhancements and a full installer.
